Culture and Politics : Identity and Conflict in a Multicultural World Paperback / softback
Edited by Rik Pinxten, Ghislain Verstraete, Chia Longman
Part of the Culture and Politics/Politics and Culture series
Paperback / softback
Description
With "race" being discredited as a rallying cry for populist movements because of the atrocities committed in its name during World War II, "culture" has been adopted by right-wing groups instead, but used in the same exclusionary manner as racism was.
This volume examines the essentialism, which is implicit in racial theories and re-emerges in the ideological use of cultural identity in new rightist movements, and presents case studies from different parts of the world where researchers were confronted with racism and worked out ways of coping with it.
